Here are my newest cabs.  This is Moody Green Jasper (38x23mm), from Daniel. Thanks Daniel.  Lapis (25x18mm).  New jasper variety from Letze (32x15mm). I don't have name for it, yet. This one is from my latest trip to Letze volcanic complex (this October). I will post pics from that trip, soon.  I named this one Letze Autumn Jasper (40x15mm). Also latest trip find.  Under The Sea Letze Jasper (33x26mm).  Same (25x18mm).  Another Letze jasper (30x22mm).  Silicified rodochrosite (27x23mm).  Aventurine (25x18mm).  Chrysoprase (20x15mm) mint green.  Another Chrysoprase (20x15mm).  Malachite (20mm). Next three cabs are from new occurrence that my mentor professor and I found during that October trip. I have to do some laboratory investigations but I am almost sure that they are mahagony obsidian.    My excuses for dial up members because of numerous pictures. I tried to make them small - under 850kb altogether. Thanks for looking. Zocky |

Awesome cabs Zotica! I like the silicified rhodochrosite and the lapis best but looks like you've got some neat new jaspers there too....mel

wow Zotika! Those are really great looking cabs...looks like you know how to work that new amchine just perfectly. I think your new Jaspers are really great looking. It's gotta be fun when you find some new unknown material. Thanks for sharing them with us, and I really like the crystal display you put them on as you photograph.

Excellent work Zotika. I'd say your new machine is working quite well. How do you like it? That Rhodocrosite is really nice as are the ones you think are mahogany obsidian. Nice shapes too. Good to see your work.

Letze all agree on one thing, Zotika . . . . . you've already gotten your money's worth out of the new machine.
That rhodochrosite is very pretty stuff, but the 'obsidian' is really, really interesting material.
Great cabs.

:owow, those are sll super cabs, but those last three are simply breath taking.....doesn't look like any mahagony obsidian that i've ever seen before, so it will interesting to see what your investigations reveal. but, no matter what it is, it's drop dead gorgeous!
